for that price……get an apple
Waaaay overpriced. Totally not worth it. With that kind of pricetag you should demand SCSI disks instead of SATA; more bandwith throughput and much lesser impact on your CPU. Better yet; why are there even hard disks in there instead of solid state (memory) disks ?
Apart from these technical comments I plain out laughed at this when I checked out the specs: "Onboard audio: High Definition Audio, 7.1 Channel, Support for S/PDIF In/Out". Like, where are the specs?
Even semi-professional hardware like Creative's soundblaster clearly gives me specs with their products: "16 / 24 bit sampling frequencies with 8 – 11,025 – 16 – 22,05 – 24 – 32 – 44,1 – 48 – 96 kHz.".
And here? "High definition audio". Puhlease….
fool + money == parted
ROFL
Not good at all for the price!
Especially if you work on Cubase 6, 64 bit is only good on Mac OSX 10.6
